Happy New Years 2009 from Hampden!  Yes, it was a COLD night (a really really cold night)…

Listen to Auld Lang Syne

The truth is Cold would be an understatement, windy and bitter would be a better description New Years Eve in Hampden.  Enjoy a few of the photos from the New Years Ball Drop 2009  AND a video is almost ready, plus way too much to list here, check back soon

For those curious types, that is the New Year’ Baby being mugged by everybody…

34th St Lights, a Short Video

December 26th, 2008 — 10:06am

A nice video of the famous 34th St Christmas Lights in Hampden, Baltimore, MD   This “Miracle” is getting bigger and bigger.  You probably cannot fit more than 4 buses end to end on this block, but the cars, tourists and buses keep on coming, along with plenty of limos…

Enjoy!

“Jingle Bells” Duke Ellington –

I should be adding a few pics to this collection.  This short 1 block section in Hampden just brings everybody into the neighborhood including tourists busses!  I think the coolest lights are the ones strung across the width of 34th street.

If you hurry and see this spectacle for yourself; find a parking spot and walk and get ready for a surprise.  You’ll see some interesting things sold to keep you warm and entertained.  I have found the BEST  time to come is right around 5:00pm, weekdays or Sunday during a football game, light traffic and you might find a parking space.  The day of Christmas or the day after are great times to view too…

Good luck!

the photos above were taken Sunday the 14th @ 5:00PM  -  Don’t Disturb the Neighbors, Please Park around the Corner…
